Acceptance and emotional fulfillment: 7 keys to achieve them
What are the characteristics of emotionally fulfilled people?
Obviously, acceptance and emotional fulfillment do not come out of nowhere.They require work, effort, good intentions and the willingness to look at ourselves. Emotional fulfillment involves having our thoughts in order, as well as our emotions.
Keys to reach emotional fulfillment
Next we will see seven factors that emotionally full people have in common:
1. They know how to say goodbye
People tend to be afraid of change. are often afraid of change, of starting a new stage.We tend to be afraid of change, of starting a new stage. It is natural that we have a sense of insecurity and fear and even pain in the face of loss, but being prepared to go through all the stages and from this attitude, will facilitate reaching the goal of acceptance.
The first step is to want change, and the second is to be willing to take the first step. Changes are necessary, and it all starts by observing our thoughts and emotions in order to select those we are interested in reclaiming.
The mental map has many dimensions, and we tend to choose only one. But if we keep our mind open, this will allow us to have access to a Wide range of possibilities. From there we can choose and nurture the one that benefits us the most and allows us to evolve.
Always thinking about the past instead of the present harms us. It prevents us from freeing ourselves, detaching and growing. Y submerges us in fearinto an abyss from which we despair and which will prevent us from improving.
Emotionally fulfilled people know that life is much better if it is lived freely, repairing our emotional wounds and moving forward from the present.
2. They can look at their emotional past without suffering.
Pain is unavoidable and necessary to evolve in our emotional journey but suffering is a choice. Martin Luther once said: "I cannot prevent birds from flying over my head, but I can prevent them from nesting in my head".
Emotionally fulfilled people know how important it is to live in the present, to move on and accept what happened. When we learn from our pain, we move forward and grow.
3. They are conscious of their thoughts and feelings
Emotionally fulfilled people are conscious of the thoughts and feelings both personal and externalThey focus from the present on realistic solutions, from care, respect, love and inner peace.
This mindset allows them to solve the problems of daily life effectively. They are more resilientThey know that they can and will fall, but they are aware that they will get up and become even stronger and more resolute from learning. They know that they will come out of the storm, but changed. They determine that constructive rather than destructive changes will continue to be part of themselves.
4. They stop complaining
They shift that energy from complaining to finding the best way to begin change or acceptance.
Complaining can throw us into dark rooms with no way out. We are largely what we thinkWe are largely what we think, and emotionally fulfilled people take this into account. They know that if they take a path and it does not give the expected results it may not be the right one at that moment, so they will make the decision to get out of that comfort zone and, from humility, rectify and take that other path that will provide different and probably more satisfactory results.
5. They can empathize without allowing themselves to be affected by the emotions of others.
They have the confidence to know how to direct their emotions. They are faithful to their actions and this allows them to maintain a more active understanding of their own emotions and those of others. From self-knowledge and acceptance they are more tolerant and will optimize the relationship with themselves as well as with others.
Relationships are the key to emotional balance.The quality of your relationships is what makes life more fulfilling, starting with yourself.
6. Don't blame yourself for failing
Mistakes are the best way to learn. Failing allows us to be tolerant and to know how to correct or recognize which other path we need to follow. Mature people accept mistakes; it is a way to innovate.
In addition, emotionally fulfilled people do not blame themselves for their limitsRather, they accept them and work to improve. Do not insist that things always go well; every setback can be a good opportunity to grow. Acknowledging the negative emotions we feel is a restorative break for the mind.
7. Emotional openness
Maintaining the emotional barrier only makes things more difficult. For that reason, it is very important to to abandon the fear of commitment and through love and self-confidence we will identify and manage difficulties better and experience great results more fully.
Conclusion
Fear is naturalIt is a mechanism that the brain has to face threatening situations, but the important thing is not to allow it to paralyze us. It is like the decision to parachute; the first step is crucial, and once you are already in the plane about to take the jump, the first time you almost always implore the instructor that it is better to throw in the towel, but the instructor does not usually "listen" and gives that push to jump.
Emotional fulfillment allows to take the reins of life from the most constructive decisions, to develop one's own vision of the world, and to develop one's own vision of the world.The key is to be open to solutions and to be open to the most satisfying goals.
The key is to be open to solutions and not to closed expectations. Life is very paradoxical and after the storm always appears the sun, you just have to be open to this new light that is coming, maybe being different from expectations. And remember, you are the creator of your mind!
